Chianti Rufina D.O.C.G. Grand Cru100% Sangiovese - Old vineyards

“La vecchia in salita” is the name of the vineyard that produces the Sangiovese destined to our most noble wine; it is a vineyard planted in 1963, and raised in traditional upturned Guyot. This Sangiovese "pure blood" dedicated to the future generation Luna and Diego is intended for the true connoisseurs of Chianti Rufina. The label was inspired by the works of the famous ceramist Innocenti and made entirely from pierced velvet.

Vinification: Soft destemming of the grapes; fermentation and maceration are achieved at a controlled temperature in stainless steel for about 25 days with numerous pumpovers and delestages.

Maturation: In French oak barriques for 24 months. Refinement: At least 18 months in bottles before release.

Ageing capacity: From one generation to another.

Sensory characteristics: Its color is a dark ruby red. The nose is well balanced with dark cherry syrup, chocolate, spice and moist chewing tabacco. The wine spreads thickly and smoothly over the palate, it exudes dark extraction and rich plushness with good acidity to finish, which really speaks of the Rufina area.

Serving suggestion: Needs to be enjoyed with sone years of age and requires decanting. It pairs perfectly with roasts, wild game and cheeses, but is also very enjoyable on its own. Serving temperature: 18-20° C.
